Sweet pear, sweet pear
Those who say they love you would never dare
I´ll watch out for you
I´ll always be there

In the hour of your distress you need not fear
In all the world there´s only one true love
And finding it´s hard enough
I bless whatever´s in the sky above
For bringing you to me

But there´s a void without your kiss
I wake on the precipice above the abyss
And though the touch of your lips these fears dismiss
Make no mistake there is an ache I have to live with
Was my grip too lose, my grip too strong
That made you want to run away?
And now you´re back where I pretend you belong
I wonder every night and day
How long?

I swear this is my prayer
Till we´re burned and scattered in the atmosphere
Or lost in the world across a crowded room
I am your stupid lover, your wretched groom
